Ben Leo vs Peter Tatchell on US boycott debate
Fire‑faced GB News debate as Ben Leo clashes with Peter Tatchell over a proposed boycott of the United States amid safety concerns.
On 12 January 2026, GB News hosted a heated on‑air clash between presenter Ben Leo and campaigner Peter Tatchell. Tatchell urged a boycott of travel to the United States ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026, citing rising safety fears for footballers and fans and alleging immigration authorities detained "completely innocent people." Leo counter‑argued, labeling Tatchell’s critics as merely football fans, not illegal immigrants, and challenged the validity of the boycott call. The argument unfolded live, drawing sharp commentary on travel safety, immigration policy and the role of sports media in political debate. The confrontation highlighted the polarised views surrounding US travel amid post‑pandemic tensions.
